Come Fall, You’ll Need a Harness for That Shearling

We noticed leather harnesses pop up on a couple of New York Fashion Week runways, a trend that continued onto London’s catwalks. Reed Krakoff’s version came with fur on the bottom, while Sass & Bide simply belted their intricate white harness over an evening gown. Topshop Unique offered chocolate brown straps over pea coats and [...]

London’s Top Five, So Far

1. Aquascutum‘s camel coats. Freja wore a short, empire waisted jacket with long slim sleeves. Its broad collar poured over her shoulders and it was nipped in with a chocolate brown leather belt. It’s too grown up for me when paired with the wide-leg slacks Michael Herz showed–but with jeans, it’d be perfect. 2. Topshop‘s [...]

London Fashion Week’s Lethal Invites Draw Attention–And Blood

London Fashion Week’s gotten a bit dangerous. An invitation to yesterday’s Sass & Bide show came on plastic cut to look like broken glass (either that or a mirrored horn). It may look cool, but its sharp edges drew blood from more than one attendee. “What were they thinking?” a reporter squealed while waiting in [...]

Topshop Unique Goes Native, With a Splash of Military

Topshop Unique showed in Covent Garden this afternoon. Its runway was made from dried leaves, setting the mood for an animal march. Models wore elaborate headpieces–think porcupines, lions, skunks, deer–over their massively teased hair and fluffy eyebrows. Our first question post-show was, “When do those go into production?” They don’t, according to Topshop PR, but [...]

Trendspotting: Head, Shoulders, Knees & Socks

Wearing socks with sandals is usually listed near the top of any fashion don’t list. Last fall, everyone welcomed tights with open toes. But it looks like spring’s headed in an even less practical direction pairing socks, whether ankle or knee high, with your favorite sandals. You can do it with platform wedges a la [...]

Would You Wear a Letterman Jacket?

Or we should say, will you break out any of your official high school gear just because the runways tell you to? Even Alexander Wang, god to the too-cool for school crowd, embraced the iconic American jock in his all-American SS10 collection. He sent Hanne down the runway in a letterman inspired jacket, albeit one [...]

Trendspotting: The Balmain-tidote

Last season, one couldn’t squeeze into a show without being knocked around by a pair of expensive shoulders. Though the Balmain or Margiela or any shoulder interpretation of the two have stuck around here and there, SS10′s featured a healthy crop of anti-shoulders so far. Designers ranging from Richard Nicoll to the team at Topshop, [...]

Week of the Dolls

Oh no. When designers and their commercially successful brands started heading back to London Fashion Week in honor of the British Fashion Council’s 25th Anniversary, our first concern was the probable influx of international editors — the stuffy kind who usually skip London because it’s way too fun and way too crazy. But now Grazia‘s [...]
